England will face Croatia, Panama and Ghana in the 2026 World Cup group stage.

The Three Lions have been placed in Group L for the finals in North America.

Thomas Tuchel discovered the first part of his assignment at a glamorous, star-studded event in Washington DC on Friday.

England were the final pot one side drawn, having been seeded fourth based on the FIFA World Rankings.

The group stage fixtures and locations will be announced on Saturday.

However, it has been confirmed that the Three Lions will face Croatia in their opening match on June 17.

Their clash will be a rematch of the 2018 World Cup semi-final, which saw Croatia triumph in extra-time.

England are unbeaten in their three meetings since, though, including a win in the group stage of Euro 2020 at Wembley Stadium.
